By the Numbers | December
by Osman Parvez
Here’s a fresh look at the Boulder market, with data through the end of last month.
45 houses sold during December, 18% for more than the asking price. Despite the bidding wars, the median negotiated discount was 1.5%.
Let’s take a closer look at the numbers…
A couple of things to note
- As prices move upward, so do the negotiated discounts.
- Within the data set are a few transactions with large discounts and premiums. Market knowledge is power. Mis-pricing is caused by lack of knowledge. It usually results in leaving money on the table.
- If you’re looking for expert advice on buying or selling your next Boulder home, don’t hesitate to call. We love helping buyers and sellers make smarter real estate decisions.
Note: The next Boulder Real Estate meetup has been scheduled. We’ll be discussing market conditions and best practices for bidding wars. We’re meeting on January 22nd at 7pm. Space is limited. RSVP HERE.

Testimonials
Osman was a refreshingly honest realtor. He stressed through the entire process that his goal was to make me happy with my home purchase. I greatly appreciated the fact that he never shied away from pointing out the negatives as well as the pluses of different places while leaving the final decision up to me.
We can highly recommend Sophie. Her attention to detail and communication skills are great. Our home was in area that most realtors are not familiar with, but Sophie took extra time to get to know the neighborhood in order to give us quality service. She also brought in a professional photographer to make our home look its best. Even though the listing was in winter, the house sold quickly. With Sophie’s business and people skills, we have no doubt she will be a top realtor in the area.
